In previous sessions we worked from our imagination to draw a fictitious landscape. In this session (the 4th in the series), the children use their observational skills to draw from life, with the twist that they are allowed to transform what they see into their own “wild thing”!

You Will Need:

Sketchbooks and A3 paper/drawing boards

Handwriting pens

Soft (B) pencils

A life model (possibly dressed up as a “wild thing”).

Time: 1 hr

Outcome:

The experience of making quick studies from life, observing big shapes and making gestural marks.

The opportunity to take ownership of their drawings by combining imagination with observation.
